Episode 03: TonePros

The guitar is quite a curious instrument. It can sound as huge and
devastating as a hurricane, but it's also quite delicate. For
example since most guitars are made of wood, they react to the
element. Think of it like this. You know how in the summer time
when it is super humid your door frames stick? And then then is the
winter they work really well because it is so dry? Your guitar
reacts in the same in the same way to the climate changes and this
can cause the wood in the neck to warp. And if the neck warps...
your guitar is done. Most guitarists are very aware of this and
take steps to regulate the climate in their houses to keep the
guitar and neck in good shape, especially since the neck has so
much to do with tone. There is another part of the guitar that has
a big effect on tone as well, a part that as guitarists we
overlook, the bridge. The bridge is one of two contact points for
the strings. It is also the contact point that controls the
intonation of the guitar. If the bridge is junk or in bad shape,
then the guitar sounds bad. Even that vintage Les Paul. In Episode
03 we talk with Wookie of TonePros where we discuss his life on the
road in various positions, and how his time as a guitar tech lead
him to TonePros. And don't forget, The month of October is a
